Real Betis officials have approached the agents of West Ham United ace Pablo Fornals about a move to the La Liga side this summer.
West Ham star Pablo Fornals is firmly on the radar of Real Betis in the summer transfer window and according to El Desmarque, the Spanish side have already approached the 27-year-old’s entourage.

Fornals found himself warming the bench at the London Stadium more often than not under Hammers boss David Moyes last season.
El Desmarque reckon that Real Betis are moving in to place to sign the Hammers star.
In my opinion, letting Fornals go this summer would be a big mistake from Moyes.
The Scot mostly plays the Spaniard out on the left wing – a position where he is fairly ineffective due to his lack of pace.
During his days with Villarreal he was mostly used as a central midfield play-maker – a role where he is most comfortable.
Pablo Fornals, who earns £79k-a-week (Salary Sport) played in that position for West Ham during our friendly win over Tottenham earlier this week, and he was very impressive indeed.
I truly believe that Pablo could be like a new signing for us if Moyes uses him alongside Lucas Paqueta next season, just in front of an elite defensive midfielder.
If Betis push hard to sign Fornals though, and Moyes can’t guarantee him regular action, he may well be tempted to move back to his homeland.
That would be very bad for West Ham. We’ve already lost Declan Rice, Manuel Lanzini and Aaron Cresswell, Michail Antonio and Gianluca Scamacca are all being linked with an exit from the London Stadium.
Moyes really can’t afford to allow any other players to leave as far as I’m concerned.
